That'd be right.

Ah, but to be anybody who's anybody these days, you simply HAVE to have a brand plastered over your getup. You just can't afford to be seen as one of the common herd.

"An international snub"? What's wrong with a bloody phone call or internet meet and greet? Isn't that why God made very well paid ambassadors (look at Kevin Rudd, he managed to pull in only about $80 million all told for his little time in the sun, the poor bastard)? Indonesia is way up there...

And no doubt just as many had implicit faith in him, just as many as trust Dr Google.

As Herr Goebbels was wont to say (something like, I'm too lazy to go into history or Google to give you the right one) ... The bigger the lie, repeated over and over, the more the fools believe it.

How true, yet so very simple, yet not enough to convince the simple minds out there.

Just what we need -- more "influencers". Wonder how much that job pays?

Oh, the dramas we face ... I think I'll wander off down the shop, buy about 50 items or so and then have to face the checkout. Piling them up into the trolley, then I'll wonder, "Do I have enough bags to put them in?"

With all the "beg pardons" in the world, I can only say this woman is stupid. More than that, she's bloody stupid, or out of her mind. "Over the years" the story says ... how long does it take the penny to drop? And why could she possibly think that this cretiniser "personality" would be...

Yes, I can just imagine these "mystery shoppers" rambling on, letting us know "how fun" it is to visit these places, playing pretend, filling out some forms and getting paid for it, I can also see a few housework jobs piling up at home.

Exactly! And the stoobidhead dumbshits go ahead, buy the stuff, renege on the payments and then either whinge when they see how much they've splurged (apparently thinking that the goods don't HAVE to be paid for!) or whinge when they're hit with late payment fees. Who do they think is going to...

The thing is -- are those past benefits available now? If not, what was the point of putting the story out there in the first place? I can remember when ice creams were 6d each, when my favourite brand of American smokes cost about 7/6 (and that was extravagant then but worth it because I...

Another example of the modern-day practice of cutting and pasting?

Sorry, but ...

I don't care what they say -- nothing can replace the feel of a newspaper (or a book) in your hands.

'member the good ol' days of Medical Benefits? How simple everything was then?

Morrisey?

I had all the recommended Covid shots when they were required, stayed disease free. Had the booster in the morning when its turn came up, tested negative after brekkie. Had the jab at about 10.30 am, showed up positive at 5.30 pm same day. Somebody has to be the outlier in mathematical graphs.

You didn't see the queries in my answer? What do you think they represent?

Nah, he'd simply wave his index finger in the air and proclaim it as"fake news".
